Summary:A remote access appliance is disclosed which provides electronic display identification data (EDID) information associated with a monitor which is communicating with the appliance, to any one of a plurality of remote computers in communication with the appliance, without requiring rebooting of a selected one of the remote computers. A plurality of multiplexers is controlled by a controller for interfacing a selected one of the computers to a display data channel (DDC) interface associated with the monitor. Memory devices are accessible by each of the computers and by the controller which store the EDID information. The controller controls the multiplexers so that any selected one of the computers can communicate with the monitor, and can access an associated one of the memory devices to obtain the stored EDID information, or such that the EDID information can be loaded into each of the memory devices.
